I feel sad that our car companies are loosing, it makes me even sadder that a company like Hyundai(sp?) can come from a crappy cheap company, to now with genesis and others cars be a contender, if they can do it why can't we? oh well I'll buy Honda or Nissan until dodge or ford can impress me,
p.s my mom had an astro van, a horrible, horrible, car, we called it the widow maker, could not handle worth a crap, and died on us all the time, my mom sold it bought a volvo, best family car ever
